I am the Crown Prince of the Three Kingdoms

"The horse infantry slowly marched westward, and entered the vicinity of Xudu steadily. Then they sent cavalry to attack the farmland of the Han Dynasty and destroy the fertile fields around Xudu, so as to destroy the finances of the Han Dynasty in the coming year."

Guo Jia said unhurriedly.

"This trick again?" Cao Cao frowned. The last time he used this trick to destroy a large number of villages, causing the Han Dynasty's finances to fall into embarrassment. This is a victory worth boasting, but it also paid a lot of money small price.

So much so that Dong Cheng's cavalry became famous.This time, do you still do that?It is unavoidably a bit uneconomical.

"This time is different. We have an army of 20, divided into four parts and still have an army of [-]. Such a force is enough for Liu Feng to take advantage of. If it spreads around like this, every place it goes will destroy fertile fields. You know, Liu Feng used [-] to [-] troops to garrison fields in Yuzhou. How many fertile fields and how much food can be produced, there is no need for ministers to calculate. If it is destroyed, it will be enough to cause Liu Feng to suffer a huge blow. Adding ordinary fertile land, even if this battle is invincible In the coming year, Liu Feng will also be in trouble, so that there will be bandits and cholera in Yuzhou."

Guo Jia raised his fist and saluted Cao Cao deeply, and said.

Volume 190, Section 1532: Chapter 7 Seventy, Cao Cao's Poison Plan Again (2)

Although Guo Jia's strategy is ordinary, it is also practical.But the meaning in it also made Cao Cao unhappy.Cao Cao frowned and asked, "Feng Xiao thinks it will be difficult for Gu to win this time?"

"If 20 troops storm Xudu, I'm afraid it will be difficult." Guo Jia said with a wry smile and nodded.

The morale of the Wei army was frustrated, but the morale of the Han army must be boosted.To be honest, Guo Jia's reason for the victory of the 20 horse infantry attacking Xudu was the high morale of the Wei army, and under the oppression of the 20 horse infantry, Xudu was panicked and unstable.Only in this way can we break through the strong city.

Now that this advantage is gone, and the city of Xudu is very strong, I am afraid that it will be difficult to win even after besieging the city in October.

Cao Cao was taken aback by Guo Jia's straightforwardness. He wanted to refute, but found no reason to refute.Cao Cao couldn't help but be disappointed. Then, Cao Cao thought of a way, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, he quickly said: "Now the morale of the army is frustrated, but Sun Ce's side is not the same. Can you wait for Sun Ce to break through Shouchun and send his troops to the east to threaten the enemy?" Xinye, when the momentum is strong, the army will attack Xu Du again to cooperate with it?"

"The news that the Han army defeated the Wei army's iron cavalry spread out. I am afraid that Jushou will gain momentum. In addition, Lu Su in Xinye and Huang Zhong in Xiangyang are not ordinary people. I am afraid that Jiangdong Sun Ce will have difficulty breaking through Shouchun."

Cheng Yu next to him let out a wry smile and said.

"Exactly." Guo Jia nodded in agreement.

"Could it be that this time alone is doomed to fail?" Cao Cao said unwillingly, although it could destroy the farmland and fertile land of the Han Dynasty, and greatly destroy Yuzhou.It can put the Han Dynasty in trouble, but this is not what Cao Cao needs.

"There is another way. If Duke Wei is not afraid of protracted time, one year, or even two years, three years, he can encircle the city with a large army, just besiege but not attack. As a result, Xudu will run out of food, so the Han Dynasty will have no choice."

After pondering for a while, Guo Jia said.

"One year is too long, the lone army is dispatched, the rear is empty, and Yuan Shao is not a vegetarian. The enmity in Qingzhou has not passed half a year." Cao Cao shook his head repeatedly when he heard the words.

"In this case, we can only implement that strategy for the time being, and first destroy the fertile land of the Han Dynasty." Guo Jia sighed.

"In fact, there is still a chance to destroy the fertile land." Dong Zhao said suddenly.

"What chance?" Cao Cao asked hastily.

"The autumn harvest is just around the corner, and the grain is about to ripen, but we have destroyed it. Then Liu Feng must be in a panic. If so, maybe Liu Feng can be induced to fight. As long as Liu Feng comes out to fight, there will be a chance."

Dong Zhao narrowed his eyes and said.

"Oh, that's the only way to go." Cao Cao said a little disappointed when he heard the words.

His 20 horse infantry army is divided into four parts, each part has a full [-] troops, plus each has a general commander, the combat power is amazing.

However, the only troops capable of fighting in Xudu City were the Fifth Route Army, [-] elite soldiers, and it was very unlikely that Liu Feng would go out of the city to fight.Even if the damage to the fertile land is huge, it is estimated that Liu Feng will knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

However, there is only one way to go at present, and Cao Cao has no other way.

"Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, where is Xiahou Dun?" Cao Cao ordered after taking a deep breath.

"The end is here."

Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, and Xiahou Dun immediately got up and came to the middle, bowing down.

"Order the three of you to command [-] elite soldiers each, and destroy the fertile fields in Yuzhou respectively. Remember to grab shields to prevent the Han army from repeating crossbows."

"promise."

Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, and Xiahou Dun all agreed.

"The army will set out tomorrow, generals, let's rest early." After allocating the remaining three armies, Cao Cao glanced at the generals in the tent and said.

"promise."

The generals all agreed, and then got up and walked out of the tent.

"Oh." Cao Cao sighed, what a wrong step, wrong step.

Volume 191 Chapter 1533: Chapter 771 Backhand (1)

Chapter 771

The belly of the Dongfang fish turned white, and it was still very early, but there was movement in Cao Jun's camp.

"Woooooo."

Amidst the melodious sound of horns, Generals Cao Cao, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Xiahou Dun each led [-] elite soldiers, and began to break out of the camp and scattered in four directions.

He was so aggressive that he planned to completely destroy the finances of the Han Dynasty for the coming year.

The battle between the Han Dynasty and the Wei Dynasty was a battle of life and death that related to the status of both countries.Before the war, both sides deployed countless spies.

As soon as Cao Jun moved, the news spread to Xu Du immediately.

At noon, the sun was shining brightly. If it was an ordinary time, there should be an endless stream of people at this time, but at this moment, the city gates of Xudu are closed.

There are countless soldiers standing on the top of the city, patrolling the camp in high spirits.

The city is also very solemn, there are no people staying on the street.In contrast, the guards of the palace are more ordinary.Last night, the celebration banquet was just held, and the atmosphere was somewhat relaxed.

However, in the side hall of the palace at this moment, the atmosphere is a bit dignified.

Liu Xie knelt on the throne, holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand, which was the news that the spies had just reported.Beneath the throne, sat Sikong Fuwan, Situ Xunyu, Shang Shuling Jiang Wan, and the king's general Liu Feng.

The four of them were summoned to discuss this matter.

"Cao Cao didn't go to the city first, but chose to attack from all sides. I am afraid, just like last time, he will destroy the good fields of the Han Dynasty, so as to trap the Han Dynasty in a difficult situation. What should we do?" Liu Xie held the bamboo slips, some said anxiously.

The last time Cao Cao sent cavalry to loot all over Yuzhou, so that people were killed and injured, and countless grains were burned.Although Dong Cheng attacked later, he first beheaded and killed Xia Houdeng, and then ran rampant in the Central Plains to retaliate.

But what is lost is what is lost, and it cannot be made up for.Afterwards, to appease the people, a large amount of food reserves were transported from Jingzhou. At the same time, Liu Feng had to feed the soldiers of the Han Dynasty and more troops, forging Liannu, Mo Dao, and armor. Difficult, it's just a day and a year.

If it weren't for the critical moment, Yang Biao led businessmen to drive up prices, intending to cause violence and regain power.Instead, many merchants were beheaded by Liu Feng, and many goods, including gold and silver, were annexed. In addition, there was Mi Zhu as the young mansion, and he dealt with it.I'm afraid the Han Dynasty has long been in chaos.

There will be no Han Wu pawns, and naturally there will be no recent situation where Han Wu pawns defeated Cao Wei cavalry.

Liu Xie really doesn't want to go through the situation of tightening his belt to live a life again.Moreover, the situation this time may be more serious than the last time.

If Cao Cao destroys it for two days, it means that hundreds of thousands of people in Yuzhou will have no crops. From this year to next year's autumn harvest, the imperial court will be responsible for feeding them.

Last time in Jingzhou, Hanzhong was rich and provided food.But it has already consumed a lot of food reserves. If there is another chaos this time, it may be difficult to help.
